"The Money Power preys upon the Nation in times of peace

and conspires against it in the hour of its calamity.

It is more despotic than Monarchy,

more insolent than Aristocracy, more selfish than Bureaucracy.

It accumulates by conscious fraud more money than it can use.

It denounces as public enemies all who question its methods

or throw a light upon its crimes.

It can only be overthrown by the awakened conscience of the Nation."

William Jennings Bryan
